Errm, pitty.

Okay, now I found that in the programmers guide, chapter 12.

I experimented with it, but I couldn't get it going first.
Then I found the solution: 
It just works when you set {$APPTYPE GUI}
This has only one litlle disadvantage: 
my program doesn't run anymore, but who cares. :-\
Okay, I forget it.

Thanks for your help.
